~Authors Note: This one is dedicated in the memory of the three time mother, poet and unarmed activist Renee Nicole Good~

This is more than slammed into a wall of somberness
Not the ruminating -too-much-type, either
I've invited the night to come bring his darkness;
to hold hate away from the world, that spiteful seether
Staring at my ceiling, awash in buttery light
Who am I kidding, the hatred can't be contained
Lit candles, in hopes of staving off so much fright
Evil charades, how injustice has been renamed
I see their masks, their diabolical grimaces
Shadows flicker and creep along these cold, hard walls

What's happened to America's hallowed premises?
On and on the false cover-up rhetoric drawls
Shoved down our throats, gaslighting lies, what an insult
Let's please stick to the truth, footage, obvious facts
This invasion into cities, moves like a cult
We've witnessed firsthand how impunity acts
The moon appears at my window, smiling comfort
No, not even in him, I believe anymore
You'd think he could pull me back, yet I remain inert
Wrong is wrong, and won't be right, till accounted for
